White Wings



Photography by Rob Hanson
 
White wings
of feathered softness
come with me to sleep
take me there
so gently
to fall in
whispered dreams

Reflections of
sweet memories
float within
my mind
they come and go
so freely
inside my wispy dreams

Gathering
in peace
and quietness
they rest
calming all the noise
with silent
tenderness

White wings
of gentle strength
carry me away
lay me in
tranquility
upon
my wistful dreams

  2. "Gathering

    and quietness
    they rest
    calming all the noise
    with silent
    tenderness"

    The ending is also beautiful.

  6. Beautiful images here, Patricia. The softness of the words (those "s" sounds) have a calming,s oothing effect. Nice one.
